Again<seufz> look in the header of my message and  you  see,  my  access
provider is the german GSM provider O2 and my resources are limited.

I have the list set to "nomail" and it works fine, but  peoples  do  not
stop CCing/Bombing me an on all messages...

I READ THIS LIST and several dozen others too otherwise I would not able
to read this list!

OK, if I look into
    <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_DSS>

I fullfill this requirements since over 9 years since I was working many
years for the french Ministry of Defense...  :-/

My idea is to use a second "computer" to store the  CC  data...  like  a
small Freescale i.MX31 (has  a  ATA-6  interface  for  HDD  and  support
cryption)

However, I do not realy know, HOW to design the database to hold data of
different Credit Cards...
